A data sample of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider between 2015 and 2018 is used. The data correspond to a total integrated luminosity of 139 fb(-1). The search is guided by a type-II seesaw model that extends the scalar sector of the Standard Model with a scalar triplet, leading to a phenomenology that includes doubly and singly charged Higgs bosons. Two scenarios are explored, corresponding to the pair production of doubly charged H-+/-+/- bosons, or the associated production of a doubly charged H-+/-+/- boson and a singly charged H-+/- boson. No significant deviations from the Standard Model predictions are observed. H-+/-+/- bosons are excluded at 95{\%} confidence level up to 350 GeV and 230 GeV for the pair and associated production modes, respectively.", optnote="WOS:000669309000001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4897), last updated on Thu, 12 Aug 2021 08:49:18 +0000", issn="1029-8479", doi="10.1007/JHEP06(2021)146", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.11961", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP06(2021)146", language="English" }
